Introductory Rust Diving on the Wreck of the MalabarIntroductory Rust Diving on the Wreck of the Malabar
Around 7:00am on Thursday, April 2, 1931, a dense fog suddenly rolled into Long Bay, obscuring the northern headland.

However, if you get a group of divers together they will no doubt joke that '... we will probably all end up bent sooner or later!'.
